List of Islamic Society of North America conventions

The annual convention of the ISNA (Islamic Society of North America) is the largest annual gathering of Muslim Americans to discuss their role in society, politics, public media, activism, educational institutions, etc.

The convention occurs every Labor Day weekend and also include parallel conventions by the Muslim Students' Association (MSA) of North America, the Muslim Youth of North America (MYNA), and The Islamic Medical Association of North America (IMA or IMANA) as well as many other smaller groups associated under the umbrella group ISNA. Attendance in recent years peaked close to 50,000, which is a significant number especially considering the total Muslim population in America is reasonably estimated at 6-7 million. (Other estimates have the number as low as 2 million or as high as 10 million, but these are considered biased estimates).

The convention was held in the following cities in prior years:

(Note: the 2009–2011 conventions were held on the Fourth of July weekend instead of Labor Day weekend to avoid the convention occurring during Ramadan. Similarly, the 2017 convention was also scheduled for the Fourth of July weekend to avoid the convention occurring during the Hajj / Eid al-Adha timeframe).
